  1. FYI Athy if it's Claydon Flight it would be 'is' because flight is singular but as you used locks,which is plural, you were correct in usin 'are' :-) Tullz givin supper a prod
  2. Although we've done several boaty hols, it wasn't until last week when we hired for a specific reason other than a holiday that it made me think, could I cope with livin in such a small space? Last week the answer would have been no; today it could be a possibility. It hasn't been plain sailin, various problems have cropped up. But all in all it has been a good experience but I'm not sure if I could do it as a fully ccr. Time will tell as we are only in the exploritory phase of gettin a nb. Tullz pourin a beer for Bogg
  3. Nah it's an old irc habit of not puttin' a g on the end I think I just might not bother with the apostrophe tho Tullz sippin a chilled glass of Aussie chard by the glow of the squirrel
  4. Is underfloor heating a sensible and cost effective way of heatin' a nb and is it practical? As I've not seen it mentioned in magazines or on boatbuilders' websites, I don't know if it's a feasible option. Tullz gettin' plum and apple crumble out of oven
  5. It never ceases to amaze me as to how naive (subsitute stupid) some people can be. We are nearin' the end of our two week hire to see if we could cope with livin' on a boat as the winter draws in and with each other in a confined space. Several folk have said how sensible and then proceed to tell us about couples who sell up lock, stock and hogshead to live on a nb without ever havin' spent more than a day on one, only to discover that they hate it! We also helped a couple through Bunbury locks on a share boat only to have the wife confide in me that she never wants to do it again (it was their first time out). So why do they do it? *puzzled look* We intend to spend another couple of weeks on a semi trad (we're on a trad at the mo) some time in either January or February. Makes sense to me of tryin' before buyin'; could save a lot of dosh and/or one's marriage! Tullz off to put cottage pie in oven!

    Chester

    Was thinkin of headin into Chester so where is a good place to moorin the heart of the city? Are the moorings at the mill hotel ok or are we headin into 'bandit territory' like other boaters have said to us? We didn't make audlem after all; next time. Hey ho! Tullz off to prod the pheasant casserole

  13. I think I'll start a new topic as this one has gone way off subject *hoots with laughter* Tullz
  14. Neither. I prefer little artisan producers. This is made by Daniel's Delights and contains kentucky bourbon which I could smell as I opened the wrappin. Back in ediblah I buy my clever chocolate (that's what BOGG calls it) from the chocolate tree. It's all very yummy oh btw, as this thread is about what jobs people do from their boats, and as it was my question to start with -what do you do to keep the wolves from the door? Tullz lettin the chocolate melt on my tongue
  15. If memory serves me correctly (which isn't often these days) I think unsnipped toms have a territory of about 1sq mile Ours was a stray and we caught him, got him snipped and he now sleeps most of the day and brings us presents of mice alive, dead and partials! *yick* Tullz

  20. There's an nb Innisfree moored just up from us just outside Nantwich is that you? And for the comp Tullz off to give the poached pears in red wine a prod
  21. Although we are only on a hire boat for a couple of weeks I made sones as soon as we got under way. Saturday eve was steak and kidney pie with mash and purple sprouting. Made soup from ham hock and butternut squash for lunch Sunday dinner was pork chop dauphinoise potatoes with carrots cooked in orange juice last nite was pasta with homemade pesto, spinach salad with avocado blue cheese and hot bacon Moored at Nantwich so got pheasant and chicken from the Market. The former will be made into a casserole. Must admit was tempted by several nice real ale pubs. seem to do more cookin on the boat than at home Tullz off to do lunch
  22. In the darkest part of the nite I realised it was She Who ... I nearly clambered out of bed and correct my mistake but Morpheus wrapped his sticky tendrels around me eyelids and rammed 'em shut! Wasn't swmbo from Rumpole of the Bailey originally? Oh no slur was intended and I hope none were taken, my grey matter doesn't work as it used to, I blame me sprogs Tullz off in search of some form of repast
  23. I'm bound to get boll@cked for this and I should have asked ages ago carlt what does swmbo stand for? The only thing I could come up with was some women must be obeyed! Tullz
